Wot I Think: Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom | RPS Review

RPS:

It’s tempting to indulge the cliché and say that Ni no Kuni 2 is more than the sum of its parts, but that’s not entirely accurate either. Rather, Revenant Kingdom is essentially just the sum of its parts and nothing more. They’re nice enough parts, and they mesh together to create one of the better JRPGs I’ve played over the past few years, but as I watched the credits roll by, I could already feel the experience seeping from my memory like a sieve. Almost anybody can mine out 40 or 50 hours-worth of honest enjoyment from the quest to build Evermore, and I certainly encourage genre fans to take the plunge. Just don’t be surprised if it fails to make much of a lasting impression, like a sandcastle going out with the tide.

indeed. i am late in the game and it felt like one of these „tales of...“ games concerning gameplay. very generic stuff. another big minus is the not existant skill level throughout the game. every boss i was able to beat using the very same tactics... this is a bummer. this game could have been so much more than an idle clicker with a generic rpg sticked onto it. yes, the graphics are fine, but a game is not only graphics. a solid 7/10...

Where the Heck is Ni No Kuni 3, Mun?

Matt from We Game Daily writes: "Cross Worlds isn’t going away. It’s making a small fortune, particularly in Asian markets, so there’s no reason for Level-5 to pull the plug. That said, there’s no real reason why a full PC/console sequel can’t be developed alongside efforts to support Cross Worlds."

While Ni no Kuni 3 would be cool, if it was like the first game, where is Dark Cloud 3 and Rogue Galaxy 2?

I thought the dev recently went mobile and Japan only. They shut down their American offices. So don't expect anything for consoles

shinoff218392d ago (Edited 92d ago )

I swear they just announced a few new games.

I stand corrected then. Never heard about these games and also i just remember ni no kuni online being mobile only.

Michiel198992d ago

they said a loooooong time ago that Level 5 was working on a new installment but there has been no news since afaik. I just hope that they take more inspiration from 1 than 2, especially when it comes to the story.

thorstein92d ago

Ni No Kuni Cross Worlds is the mobile game you're thinking of.

It looks amazing but I don't like to play mobile games.

Yeah the sequel was okay but had nothing on the first game, especially the battle system.

The story just didn't have that charm and even the twist at the end of the game wasn't really anything cool like Wrath of the White Witch.

Also the fact there was like ZERO mention of Oliver or his adventures in the game, no references, nothing was such weird. It's set a hundred or so years after but still, I'd have expected to seen some throw backs. I think we just got like a temple with his statue in it or something.

goldwyncq92d ago

If you want more Oliver, just watch the movie.

shinoff218392d ago

Fking word. I've been hoping for this for quite some time.

melons92d ago

The premium games didn't sell amazingly, right?

shinoff218392d ago

Not to sure. They should of though. They were pretty good. I like both.

Michiel198992d ago

yeah, especially outside of japan. They should have released on pc at the same time as the ps3 version or a short time after.

Inverno92d ago

They should've worked with Ghibli to put out a proper movie. Should've also made a Pokemon-esque spin-off rather than make Yokai Watch. If they do make a third game they gotta work with Ghibli!

Not a bad game but not as good as the first game unfortunately.
